Youth Exchange

The Youth Exchange program in District A-1 is held during the month of July but sometimes goes in to August depending on the year.  There are two scheduled hosting times, both 10 days in length.

Effective Speaking Contest

A public Speaking Contest is held in February - March each year and is open to all students in public and private schools.  Local contests are hosted by Lions Clubs to select contestants for each Region.  Winners of the Region compete at the District and Multiple District contests.

Peace Poster Contest

Each year, Lions clubs around the world proudly sponsor the Lions International Peace Poster Contest in local schools and youth groups. This Contest encourages young people worldwide to artistically express their visions of peace.

The theme of the 2010-11 Peace Poster Contest is "Vision of Peace." Students, ages 11, 12 or 13 on November 15, are eligible to participate.

Healing Garden

Congratulations Lions Families of District A-1, A-2, A-9 and A-15! Together, over a period of 6 years, we have donated $225,000 to the Children’s Health Foundation through our “Healing Garden” Project!

Lions Foundation of Canada

In addition to training Dog Guides for people who are blind or visually impaired, the Lions Foundation also trains Dog Guides to meet the needs of Canadians with hearing and other medical or physical disabilities. All programs are offered at no charge to the client, but future care and maintenance become the responsibility of the Dog Guide recipient.
